Rant/Vlog: The Top Ten Best-Selling Cars in the UK For All of 2024 - Lloyd Vehicle Consulting

[@scottwalker4546]

I think the reason cars like Genisis aren't selling is because the lack of advertising 🤔

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Actually, you might be right! I don't recall seeing any publicity for them at all.

Very Interesting Joseph I like the way you do this here Stelenttis anounced two new Chryslers to be built at Windsor a large SUV EV with a 700 mile range called Aspen a new car based on the Dodge Charger no name yet and I was very surprised to learn the Fiat Panda is one of the top selling European Cars up to this year and I did not kbnow they still made them 19 million sold as for Masaratti I think Stelenttis would like it gone and who would name a car Funky Cat or did I hear that or not looking forward to your next offering best regards Andy Allen.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Yes, the Ora Funky Cat, now known as the Ora 03! Wonder why they changed the name...

I have an old car that is becoming beyond economical repair, but buying a modern car is terrible due to complexities. I think a nearly new base spec Dacia, Kia or Hyundai is potentially an only option. I believe the Lcd and touchscreens are cheaper to put in cars but expensive to repair. Nevermind wet belt issues etc.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

A lot of new cars don't actually have wet timing belts. Kias and Hyundais don't have them at all, for example. The Kia Picanto, Hyundai i10 and Dacia Sandero would all be very good options.

[@dominicchesterman2107]

@lloydvehicleconsulting I do have them saved on Auto Trader sir! I had considered the Fiat 500 MHEV that you drove a few weeks back which are chain driven engines, but I've heard of the chains wearing within 30000 miles and becoming a costly repair! Not so with the Kia and Hyundai. Heard a few reports of the Dacia having early chain wear also. I don't remember having these problems with my 1980's Fiestas and Escorts.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

Maybe just stick to the Hyundais and Kias in that case, sir...

[@richardhowlett7398]

And not one of them, especially Volkswagen, would I consider buying, although I do know someone who added 1 to their figures. I guess DS and Genesis sadly, won’t be selling cars here by next year.

[@lloydvehicleconsulting]

There are definitely some 2025 models I would buy, sir, but I agree that many people don't like modern cars any more.
